ABSTRACT
[ Objective] To discuss the effect of IMPACT on community schizophrenes'depression and anxiety, as well as the reduction of disease relapse. [ Methods] By means of cluster sampling were included 187 registered schizophrenes from Regional Mental Illness Management System.According to the scheduled inclusion criteria, 119 of them were selected and divided randomly, into a 60 -member intervention group and a 59 -member control group.Only in the intervention group was IMPACT model used.Follow-up and evaluation was made with SDS and SAS on the two groups before grouping, and at 6-months, 12-months and 18-months after grouping. [ Results] After 12 months'observation, the SDS score of the intervention group was obviously lower than that of the control group (P<0.05 or 0.01). After 6 months'observation, the SAS score of the intervention group was also obviously lower than that of the control group ( P<0 .05 or 0 .01 ) . [ Conclusion] IMPACT model can reduce the depression and anxi-ety degree of community schizophrenes, and help prevent relapses of the disease.
